Rhod Gilbert: Men don't talk about infertility.

"You feel like a loser, you feel emasculated." Comedian Rhod Gilbert said he's the reluctant face of infertility.

"I think I represent a large number who don’t talk about it." The comedian told Nihal Athanayake that despite making the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ documentary Stand up to infertility, he was still unable to speak to his late father about his own fertility issues.

"I realised after years of fertility treatment I was lurking in the background, I was never the one sat next to the nurse, the fertility expert, the doctor, the GP I was always on the outside." He said he was happy for the focus to be on his partner despite both of them having fertility issues.
